WMV Exports, Audio Issue

I am having an issue exporting windows media files from FCP and Compressor. This is something that I do on a regular basis with no problems.

To start, I am using the latest Flip4Mac (Studio Pro HD).

My timeline layout is as follows:

3 sec Black, 30 Bars & Tone, 10 Slate and then the 30 spot.

After I select my I & O (30 spot) I go through the normal export with QT conversion and adjust the settings accordingly (in this case a preset). However when the compression is complete the file size is larger than normal and the audio starts from the beginning of the timeline. So I hear the 3 black then 27 of tone. Very Strange! This is only happening with Windows Media Files. QTs export fine.

Try exporting the sequence as a self contained Quicktime movie and then using Compressor to convert that version. I've had a similar problem to yours at the end of a sequence when going to Compressor direct from FCP which was resolved this way.

Thanks, I did discover that work around. It is just strange that I had not had this problem at all in the past. I have exported hundreds of .wmvs directly from FCP and Compressor with no issues. Today it seems as if it just decided to stop working. Hopefully when I get to the office tomorrow, it will have resolved itself.

I did try un-installing and re-installing flip4mac, trashing the FCP prefs, and rebooting.
